A side dish to the Tampa Terminal, the South Florida Mega Route is an in progress route that comprises of the FEC and CSX mainlines in South Florida. This is the final version of the repeatedly developed Miami sub and FEC routes, in the clarity and quality I have evolved into with the onset of "Trainz HD (Richard's term)" and TS2012 last year. Scale and TERRAIN are 100% accurate in this one, coming from one HUGE shapefile-- my computer couldn't even handle it!

Here are a few pics of scenery areas that I have done. No true op sessions just yet.

First of all, allow me to commend you for actually having some shots to show of an announced route!
Secondly, it looks like it's going to be a good one!
 
Downtown Spur/ NW 22 AV Note: I fixed the oopsie in the beige building. The other side of the asset Concrete Platform does NOT warp out anymore

Over a year later, I am finally back to progressing on this line. A short break away from some radical progress on the Tampa terminal, I take the time to work on this route nice and fresh.

Remember this route accounts for both the FEC and CSX mains, so it's going to take quite a long time. But I think I'll pull it off. The shots you're about to see depict fairly incomplete scenes, this owes to the high density in the Hialeah area which does make it time consuming to model it.

Over the 13 months that have elapsed, I gained much more mastery, knowledge, media, and experience railfanning the Miami terminal. So I have started off on Hialeah Yard accordingly:

And since JR will be rolling out a surprise, hint hint, I gave some of my focus to the FEC side of things:
